    Otterinthewater was complaining cause Landstar doesn't pay $25 when you have to go take a random like WE does. So there are perks.

    That actually would apply to the trailers-especially the raggedy ##* SMX trailers they still hold on to.

    Some of us “naysayers” worked there,so we’re pretty familiar with the skullduggery there.
    If a TORNADO of all things couldn’t take the place out,that should tell you how bad it is!!
    (and it was a DIRECT HIT)

    I used to work for Western Express they were the first company i worked for. Their equipment broke down an average of 3 to 4 times per week. They would give you the money code to write a check for a lumper fee then take the money out of your pay check and refuse to reimburse you. They always left an average of 2 to 3 loads off of every check literally every check. I fell and was injured getting out of my truck at their yard in Bethlehem Pa. and was out of work for over 2 weeks still have not seen a single dime of my workers comp pay.

    Before they moved to Bethlehem the original yard when I worked there used to be 10 minutes further east in Nazareth,which was actually shared with Venezia-the place looked like a junkyard!
